of the mountain. The illumination was
also seen in eastern Oregon at a distance
of seventy-fye miles.

PARsELY SAUCE.

Wash a bunch of parsely in cold water,
then boil six or seven minutes in salt and
water. Drain it, cut the leaves from the
stalks and chop them fine: allow two table
spoonfuls of leaves to one-half pint of
melted butter. Serve with boiled fowls
and fish.
In cooking fish the chief aim should be
to keep in the flavor and nutriment; for
this reason it is better to bake or steam
than to boil it. Ore method that has the
merit of simplicity is to butter baking
tin, lay on it any small fish, or slice or
one or two filets from cod, founded, and
the like, cover with sheet of paper but
tered, and cook in moderate oven, when
the usual success can accompany it.

The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1887-03-05

The presence Of a representa-
tive Of the Kentucky Union rail-
road at the meeting held at Paris
last week, in the interests of the
Paris, Georgetown & Frankfort
railroad, was thought by some of
the delegates at that meeting to
have been for the purpose of scar
ing Lexington into making the
Union an offer to come to that
city instead Of going to Paris. and
it seems it had the desired effect,
as the following dispatch indicates:
LEXINGTON, Feb. 20. The
Railroad Committees of the
Chamber Of Commerce and City
Council met at the office of G.
H. Stoll. at II o'clock to-day, to
confer with officers of the Ken
lucky Union railroad in regard to
inducing the latter to run their
road to Lexington instead of Paris.
The Kentucky Union people are
about evenly divided between
Paris and Lexington, and this city
will have to offer good induce
ments in order to get the road.
Much interest is being manifested
here on the subject, as the people
of Lexington are fully alive to the
great benefit this road will be to
the city.
